Hold'em With Harvey

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante
Jason Harvey
Jason Harvey

Jason Harvey continues to climb the counts here, getting one shorter stack to shove over his preflop raise, then making the call with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}.

The shorty held {7-Spades}{7-Hearts} and ran out of chips after the {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{4-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades} run out.

Aitchison Out Again; Mueller Joins Him

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Scott Aitchison got down to 2,500 on his second bullet fast. Then, when he shipped it in from early position, Kieth Mueller, Steven Reinacher and a third player called.

The {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop checked around, but when Mueller fired 7,000 at the {7-Diamonds} turn, Reinacher shoved.

The third caller folded, but Mueller made the call for his tournament life and was behind with {A-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Reinacher had flopped a set holding {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, Aitchison's {9-Spades}{5-Spades} was no good and Reinacher held following the {2-Clubs} river.

A Little Off The Top

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante
Scott Aitchison
Scott Aitchison

Scott Aitchison, whose haircut has become a trending topic on social media of late, lost most of his chips with {a-}{k-} versus {k-}{9-}, getting them in on a king-high flop before a nine fell.

The last of them went across the line when he shoved a flush draw versus Jason Harvey's top pair and couldn't find a club. Aitchison has skipped a trip to the barber, however, deciding to re-enter instead.

Royale With Cheese

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante
Chris Babula
Chris Babula

Lancaster, NY's Chris Babula turned {9-}{7-} into a straight to crack pocket aces in a battle of the blinds.

Add that to a Royal Flush he made to drag another pot and he's closing in on 70,000 already and into the top spot on the leader board here in Level 7.
